I don't really drink anymore myself. Got sick of the hangovers. Have enough bad habits to be getting on with anyway.

What kind of training do you do anyhow?

I'm with you on the break.
Training since I was about 5 as well.
Eventually you end up sacrificing the sanity of a normal life and lose a bit of yourself.
I've had the odd break here and there but you inevitably find yourself browsing through the magazines, watching the DVD's or talking about it…so much for a break.
I had my first drink in over 13 years at a party the other day.

Shao-lin hermit fist or what?

Personally, I'm on a training break for the first time in a lifetime.
Feels kinda weird not to live at the gym or be competing but I'll be back at it within a month at the latest….after Xmas of course!

On another note, Clive McKenzie did not train with Dan Inosanto from 1978-1984.
Absolute bollocks and that can be verified by simply contacting Dan himself.
Clive has fuck all certification in Jun Fan or JKD and is a shit fighter – and I use the word 'fighter' in its loosest form.
Clive is on Youtube so you can see for yourselves how bollocks he is.

Emil, some questions for you taking from your own words.

“Urban Combat is a 21st century fighting form created by me to keep you alive and free from being robbed, raped, crippled, and stabbed.”

Will it also help me raise the dead, heal the sick, walk on water and stop global thermonuclear war?

“I have been training in martial arts for 27 years now.”

So why are you still shit? Demand your money back…unless you mean you've been 'teaching' yourself.

“Also I have met and trained with my dear friend Sigung Taky Kimura”

Dear friend? You only met him on one fucking visit Emil. Worst example of name dropping ever.

“there is a knife crime every 30 seconds in London”

I see empirical research is not your forte. That is the worst case of butchered statistics I have seen so far. So that's 2,880 in a day in London alone?
You utter dyscalculiac cock.

“A kid playing on his wee bike does not know himself, he doesn’t know he can climb mountains, sky dive or wonder what’s its like deep down under the sea”

Then by your own philosophical ramblings, it's entirely accurate to say “You don't know that you're actually an utter cock.”

“A good way to train the mind is to listen to it.”

Oh really? So when Captain Paranoia sits on a persons shoulders and kills their belief by socially driven variables, they should listen to it hmm? Yeah good teaching Seigmund Fuck.

“Because martial arts is a very personal thing who ever doesn’t agree with the spiritual aspect will never get or understand JKD or the martial arts in general, I think.”

Then you think wrong. Your lack of objectivity is thrilling as is your stolen belief that the art defined by a spiritual construct. You've watched one episode of Kung Fu too many and tossed over Game of Death too often for your own good. Cock.

“MMA happens to be more about ego and more for show.”

An exmaple of your utter cockness. You do realise, that technically, Bruce Lee was doing MMA long before it had a name. You've just scored an own goal. Oh noes your dreams of being visited by the ghost of Lee are now fucked.

“MMA fighters are without doubt supreme athletes but it’s different in the ring to the street.”

Then you can quit name dropping having 'trained' with Chris Eubanks trainer. Own goal…again.

“If it’s three o’clock in the morning and you feel there is danger, get a taxi”

Hate to warn you chuckles, but pre-empted danger to the point of being able to book a taxi in advance…is called Paranoia.

“In Urban Combat we have a saying, “He who is on top wins”.”
“in a street self defense situation you have to be upright.”
“I don’t understand why anybody would go to the floor to fight.”
“It’s okay for competition or for wrestling in the ring but not for real street situations.”

A fuckload of contradictions all in the same answer. Hey, here's one “Don't hink…feeeel.” Cock.

“his mate could stab you with a bottle or even shoot you.”

Then I suggest you either book that taxi, or take his mate out instead of playing slap fu with the unarmed one.

Anyway, you're a total prick and your videos are shite.
How about your 'opponents' aim for your face in future instead of 2 feet to the side.

Regarding his videos; I'm not impressed.
Allow me to explain. Painting by numbers is easy – you simply follow pre-arranged guidelines. Watch the person throwing the move and ask yourself one question; “Who retains a static posture in a real fight and allows you to bridge that gap?”

Secondly, some of the videos are absolute fake in reaction and response.
I've seen videos where people go flying and they've barely been touched, whilst in others they spin around after holding a pad that's been kicked.

Emil, here's one for you and perhaps you can start using this. “Broken rhythm.”
It's easy to follow a pattern, but unless you're fighting a wooden dummy or an idiot, real fights don't allow you to stay in a deluded comfort zone.

You're not a competition fighter, nor are you a streetfighter, regardless of the rubbish I've read on various forums posted by yourself and your sycophantic friends who are easily impressed.

Be like your hero and make a public challenge in M.A.I.
I will be the first to respond and it isn't the first time I've said I want to spar with you.
Again, my only stipulation is that it's filmed and we have an independant witness to verify the outcome.
I know of roughly 20-30 people who are disgusted by your bullshit and would love to prove you're full of shit.

While I'm at it, for an Nth dan, your kicks are shit and extremely limited.
Your balance is rubbish and you make the mistake of most non-kickers in that you fail to spot your kicks or land them effectively.
Holding a weak leg up will only help an attacker rush a shoot move.

Try to learn how to do more than 2 or 3 butchered kicks.
Try to learn how to kick with the other leg as well.

And if you really want to go to the next level, issue a challenge. Bob & Tony will love it and I'm sure the readers will; not to mention your students.

Make the challenge official and I'll drive down to Brighton in a heartbeat.

Game on.

You're a con man and have zero credibility in the ring to prove your…Bruce Lee's method.

Issue a challenge in M.A.I to prove your rip off shit style and I gaurantee you I'll be the first to take it up and knock you out within 2 minutes or less.

You're a complete joke.
You're not Bruce. He's dead.
Get over it you thieving shyster.
